T,r.aAnv ENTERTAINMENT. Tlie
entertainment given by the Sigma
Phi anil .Esthetic Societies pi Aioany
Collegiate Institute, last. Tuesday
night, was well attended by the intel
Iisrent. refined and critical portion of
our community, and the "affair passed
oil with intlnito credit 1,0 an concerneii.
The "roll call" was a new and unique
featurejind was fully appreciated. The
anthem, bv both Societies, was rarely
rendered. The Salutatory, by J. Ew
ing Hannon, was, carefully delivered,
though hardly loud enough for the cars
of the entire audience. ; The recitation,
by Miss G. Olive s Canon, was ex
cellently rendered, and by Its beauty
and pathos, brought tears to the eyes
of many of the audience. The solo,
by Miss Alice Griflin, was spirited,
and took well with' tlie audience, as
did also two. or three other .. musical
treats rendered by her during the
evening. She is undoubtedly a cultured
musician as well as a finished vocalist.
An essay, by T. JiiOp Tate, was beauti
fully written and. ' well read. The
charade, "Foot-Prints," was very -fair
and one of two of tho characters most
excellently represented especially
those sustained by Misses E. L, Ketch-,
um and E. M. Cowan. Miss H. L.
Thompson recited HPeace anoVWar"
quite creditably. The triumph of the
evening Was a-olo, rendered In Ger
man, by a sweet little Tyroleon war
bler named Martha' Korthour. She
w.n mnsf. vehemontlv encored. An
oration, by O. H. Irvine, was almost
n. failure for want cfnrbiier study and
nmnamtion: but in tho charade of
"Petroleum"' Master Irvirie more tnau
inpil liis lost, laurels, keemnas the
house in a perpetual roar of laughter
by his- odd expressions ana antic
maneuvers-A an actor he is a do-
nirlMl supcess. The "naner" Wag: a
worse farce tian our burnc out nan
sheet. A 'lliiqt, by Miss Tliouipson
and Alexander, was beautifully render
ed, as was also a piano solo by Maggie
Foater. The recitation of Will Carle-
toii's poem, "Betsey and I are Out,',
by Bobert poster, was fairly delivered,
though rather too ' rapidly; and Its
answer, by Miss B. L. Ketdlmm,' was
really good. I A quartette '.'Itemember
the Poor," by Misses Griiliin and Bt-own
aud Messrs.', Clement and Warren,
was beautiful and -touching. Chroni
cles, by C. P. Davis, was excellent and
laughable. "Gambler's Warning,"
was only indlilerently done. Miss
Belle Monteith was superb in her
character ia the charade. An oration,
by Prof. Sox,.Bhowed great care ill Its
nrrnno-olllpn t. and was faultlessly de
livered. The calesthenic exercises by
tlie young ladles of the jiistnetic socie
ty were beautiful. The comic recita
H..n "Tlfiw Chiiroh Oriran." bv J. W.
Poster, brought down tne House, as
does everything brought forth by
itmmv The. nnno- of t.lio Old Sexton
iu character, by H. C. Clemont, was a
masterly effort aud highly appreclateu,
Tho Vnlp-ilintorv. liv Miss E. M. Tur-
jjroll, closed the exercises, and was one
of the crowning successes of tne even
ino-. Mia Turrell is a careful reader, I
distinct sneaker . and a i fjuished
rhetorician. ' ' '

'Christmas Eve' in the CiTY.r
Ijiist evening the members and friends
of the United Presbyterian aud Congre
gational Churches had a gay time in the
latter chapel,here an impromptu Con
cert and a "miscellaneous"- sociable
were the features of the occasion. The
folks present turned themselves" loose
for fun and merriment and it need
only be said that -they 'ivere United
Presbyterians to prove to tlie world
that they had their fun. " ' '-'
The teachers of the M. E. Sabbath
School last night gave a free supper
and festival to their Sabbath School
Scholars at Pacific "Opera House, at
which there was a full attendance of
youngsters, who by their merry faces
and ripplkig laughter fully demon
strrted their enjoy ment of tho occasion.
The supper was most exceiteni aim
bountiful, and was partaken of with . a

he is the bwner of a certain o'aim

dian War of 1855-50; that tlie
amount .due is about five thousand

day of November, 1871, B. F. Dowell,
of Jacksonville, Oregon, fraudulently
represented the deponent to be dead,
and applied to the Probate Courc of
Jackson oounty, Oregon, for letters of
administration to issue lo him, tlie
said Dowell, upon the said deponent's
estate: farther falsely rbpfesontinir
that the said deponent had left assets

The above is not tho most elcennt
linnilinrr in tho world, but it is emi
nently suggestive of the sulject under
consideration. ,
Tiiatantinr Wfl flrri nreilililv intorrri-
ed that the 0. & C. Kaijroacl Compa
nv have recently in several instances
absolutely taken from tlie steamer ar
riving at Portland oonsignrrietittl of
freights designed for' tiiiif oity, ami for
which tho Wiilamotto lliircr Trans
portation Company (opp'osiiidn) .hut
bills of lading, and brought them up
by railroad thus defrauding the steam
boat line of that to which they word
legitimately entitled aud for1 wblc'H
they had cdritrac'ted. dt'eonrso. IIol
laday'e 'railroad line and Uolladay's
steamship line have a common interest j
wluon Will account ior tne mummi iu
which this outrageous proceeding was
manipulated so successfully.
The nublio can easily seo what a!
leverage this gives the railroad ovet
the steamboat line. .
Another Instance: - About two
weeks aaro 1 a rumor was current on
ourstfeetB that 'Teal, Goldsmith &
Co. had sold out their steamboat lino
to Ilolladav. and the rumor was said
to have odme tro'h. tho railroad tele
graph office in this city; where bucIi a
dispatob! was said to have been reddiv-
ed. Of course there was noining in
the rumor, bdt it gained currency and
oredonoo with every passing breeze,
aud for a tiriie rtiariy df 6ur citiccns
were quite unoasy: ; .
Such proceedings as thuso can not
be too severely condemned, and cor
porations that resort to silcli mcaiis tii
secure art advantage over a rival
should be utterly contemned and Uis
oountenanoed. , ' -'
The now line of steamers are aoujig
in good faith with the people, and ou
ly ask a liberal patronage to iiisuru
their continuance in trade, i lie peo
ple cannot afford to lot tho lino y
down, and there b no danger of such
a oatastrophe as long as" they do their
